It looks like
Apple is all about ‘intelligence’ now, as the company may be on the verge of launching a feature called ‘Battery Intelligence’ on the heels of Apple Intelligence. But unlike Apple Intelligence's suite of tools, this new feature appears to have only one task.
9to5Mac has found a framework called ‘BatteryIntelligence’ in code from the latest iOS 18.2 beta, and while the feature isn’t active in the beta, it’s reportedly designed to estimate how long it will take to charge your phone.
According to 9to5Mac, Battery Intelligence won’t just estimate the time to reach 100%, but it'll also let you choose to get an estimate for when your battery will reach 80%, and perhaps other charge levels.
It’s easy to see how this could be a useful tool – if you don’t have long to charge, you’ll be able to get an immediate indication of how fully charged your phone will be able to get in a given time. Or, if you don’t want to charge your phone above a certain level (in order to preserve battery health), but haven’t set a charging limit, you’ll know to check on it after however much time the estimate says.
However, it's not clear if it will be rolled out as part of iOS 18.2 since the feature is not currently enabled. It could come in iOS 18.3 or later, or Apple could choose not to roll out the tool.
Still, there’s a good chance that Battery Intelligence will launch, and since the framework for it is present in iOS 18.2 beta code, we’d think it’s likely we’ll see it sooner rather than later.
Either way, there’s plenty more to get excited about in iOS 18.2, with numerous new AI tools coming, including Image Playground, Genmoji, ChatGPT integration, and Visual Intelligence.
